One technique I have seen mention is factory reset + a dummy account.
After doing a factory reset mock up some stuff. Download some random pictures of families, vacation, dogs, etc... to the wiped laptop.
Also have a burner cloud account: Gmail account with emails( recipes from your "Mom", e-invite to the neighbors house party, etc...)
This lets one provide a token objection first but giving them what they think they want in the end.
I'm not fussed about the token account. I'll happily tell them I wiped the device so they couldn't jerk off to my nudes.
The main problem is restoring all the useful content afterwards.

You could get in the habit of remoting into a machine for daily use. (remote desktop, etc...)
Then the laptop just becomes a thin client. Nothing to restore because the "actual" Machine never cross the boarder.

that could be a nice workaround, leave a laptop at home and set up some kind of vpn.
just leaves the 2FA and Mobile issue
